Anais Mitchell - Out Of Pawn 2014 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, Uncle Louie, I wrote you a song
I'm glad you got your heart out of pawn
I'm glad you got your king out of check
At least that's how things stood when I saw you last

[Verse 2]
It was New Orleans before the flood
You had just met a girl, you were falling in love
She lived on the levee and knew the blues
And played harmonica better than you

[Chorus]
In a neighborhood bar
In the middle of summer
Shoulder to shoulder
Sitting like sister and brother
All of the sorrows you told each other
Rose like smoke from thе room

[Verse 3]
And the heat and the bourbon was in your hеad
You were talking in tongues, you were back from the dead
And the girl and the city were one and the same
Last call never came
[Bridge]
And I can see you swimming out into the street, hmm
I can hear you singing, "When I die, don't cry for me"

[Verse 4]
Hey, Uncle Louie, the city is spinning
She sure is pretty, you sure are grinning
She's leading you home from the heat of the bar
To lie on the levee and look at the stars

[Chorus]
You can hold her hand
You can kiss her face
Go slow if you can
'Cause the world is a very sad place
And when she leaves, she'll leave no trace
And the world will still be there

[Outro]
And the sky is colored in purple and yellow
And you lie on the levee with stones for pillows
And you and the girl and the city make love
With the harlequin sky up above
